Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment Methods for Uterine Fibroids

I believe that most of us don’t know much about uterine fibroids. With the rapid pace of life, the incidence of various diseases is increasing day by day, threatening people’s lives and health at all times. Tumors are divided into benign and malignant. If it is a benign tumor, if we discover it early and treat it in time, it will not pose too much threat to our lives and health. If it is not discovered and treated in time, once the benign tumor deteriorates into a malignant tumor, it will pose a huge threat to our lives and health. So what are some good ways to treat tumors? Let us now learn about the Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment methods for uterine fibroids.

method:

1. Surgical treatment Except for malignant tumors of the blood system such as leukemia and lymphoma, all other malignant tumors, including cancer and sarcoma, are tumors with one or more tangible entities, so they are also called "solid tumors" and can be removed through surgery. Since cancerous tissue has the potential to invade the surrounding areas and spread and metastasize along the lymphatic vessels, the principle of surgical resection of malignant tumors is: "Resect the tumor, the tumor-bearing organs, and the lymph nodes in the drainage area in one piece." Of course, surgery always carries certain risks, and most patients are middle-aged or elderly, often with other comorbidities or potential organ dysfunction. However, surgical resection may bring hope of cure to patients, so it is still advisable to actively strive for it.

2. Radiotherapy Radiotherapy is a method of using radiation to kill cancer cells. It is very effective for malignant tumors such as nasopharyngeal cancer, cervical cancer, and lymphoma. In addition to treating the primary lesion, radiation therapy is also often used for local treatment of metastatic lesions such as lymph nodes, bones, and brain metastases. However, when radiotherapy reaches a certain dose, it will produce toxic side effects such as nausea, vomiting, and leukopenia, which should be treated accordingly.

Some tumors, such as acute lymphocytic leukemia, can be relieved to varying degrees or even cured after chemotherapy. In recent years, with the emergence of new chemotherapy drugs, multiple drug combination schemes have been continuously introduced, and the efficacy of these drugs on various solid tumors has been continuously improved. Like radiotherapy, chemotherapy also has certain toxic side effects, the most common of which are gastrointestinal reactions: nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, etc.; suppression of hematopoietic function, decreased white blood cells, thrombocytopenia and even bone marrow failure, etc.; hair loss and phlebitis are also relatively common. Therefore, more consideration should be given before chemotherapy, and careful observation and close follow-up should be carried out during chemotherapy, and the dosage should be adjusted in a timely manner.

3. Biological therapy is different from radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Generally, it has fewer toxic and side effects. It is often used after surgical treatment, radiotherapy and chemotherapy to restore and enhance the patient's immune function and consolidate the therapeutic effect, or as part of the comprehensive treatment of cancer. However, based on the current medical level, it is difficult to achieve the goal of treating cancer using biological therapy alone.

Physical therapy includes cryotherapy, microwave therapy, laser therapy, etc., which are effective in destroying local tumors. Although these treatments are difficult to completely cure, they can eliminate tumors as much as possible and alleviate symptoms, which is beneficial for changing the balance between the body and the tumor and restoring and improving the body's anti-cancer ability.

Traditional Chinese Medicine treats cancer by either promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis or by clearing away heat and detoxifying. The efficacy still needs to be summarized and improved. Traditional Chinese Medicine also has the theory of strengthening the body's resistance to disease and eliminating evil in treating cancer, which can help defeat cancer. If combined with surgery or radiotherapy, the therapeutic effect can be further improved.

The above content introduces us to the traditional Chinese medicine treatment method of uterine fibroids. We must not underestimate the disease of tumors. When this problem occurs, we must treat it as soon as possible to achieve better recovery. We must not wait until benign tumors turn into malignant tumors before regretting it. I hope the above content is helpful to everyone.
